  • Why would they say something about Al Unser sr but not menton that jim hickman was killed the day before ....

  • @jazzbo1974 Actually they did in the pre-race show.

  • Who's Tony Bettenhausen?

  • @chrisuncleahmad Tony Bettenhausen died in at indy decades before this. His son raced in the early 80's and 90's in CART.

  • No this is the 2 race there that year the day before hickman was killed .. Well I read he died early sunday morning ..

  • This is the second race, for sure. Rick Mears on pole, Tom Sneva winning. The June race saw Gordie Johncock take pole and victory

  • i kno this shouldnt suprise me cuz the fields were much more spread out back then, but what did Rick Mears find that got him 4MPH faster than the next nearest qualifier?

  • They called races better back then; focusing nearly constantly on the RACING, not on...celebrity cat fights and crap.

  • Where did Hickman wrecked at?

  • Favorite race track in the world, THE MILWAUKEE MILE!!!

  • Hickman was killed during the second Milwaukee meeting that year (the race of that meeting occuring on August 1)

    Perhaps this race is the first race meeting after Indy that year?

  • No...they mentioned Bobby Rahal winning at Cleveland...this would have to be the second Milwaukee race. Cleveland always ran in early July.

  • Did ESPN ever make mention of Jim Hickman's fatal accident here that weekend?

  • Mario's #40 Patrick STP car is still one of the prettiest I remember from that era (which was right before I was born).

    What's the aerodynamic purpose for the rear forewing?

  • I never realised how well Can You Feel It sounds as background music for a grid.
